Test & Measurement R&S®RTM Digital Oscilloscope Scope of the art

R&S®RTM Digital Oscilloscope At a glance Ease of use, combined with fast and reliable results, is precisely what users expect from a bench oscilloscope. Rohde & Schwarz has the solution: the R&S®RTM. Users can now work with two screens in one, quickly access important functions, evaluate results while other oscilloscopes are still booting up and see signals otherwise lost in the noise. The R&S®RTM models with 350 MHz or 500 MHz bandwidth offer a maximum sampling rate of 5 Gsample/s and a maximum memory depth of 20 Msample. As a result, they can display signals accurately, right down to the...

Signal analysis: quick results Frequently, measurement signals need to be analyzed in detail, and their properties (e.g. frequency or rise and fall times) have to be determined. The R&S®RTM oscilloscopes offer powerful tools that facilitate signal analysis and deliver precise results. QuickMeas: key results at the push of a button Measurement value Positive peak voltage Negative peak voltage Peak-to-peak voltage Cursor-based measurements are normally limited to horizontal or vertical cursors. The R&S®RTM oscilloscopes are different: Their cursor menu offers additional functions, familiar...

Three cursors are used for measuring ratios. The RatioX measurement, for example, determines the duty cycle of a pulsed signal conveniently and in a single step. Another useful cursor function is “Set to Wave”. At the push of a button, this function automatically assigns the cursors to the corresponding signals, eliminating the need to select and position the cursors. Fast time to results: switch on, measure and done Optimized for fast signal analysis, the R&S®RTM oscilloscope starts up within only a few seconds. The most important measurement results for an active signal can be obtained at...

Debugging: everything at a glance Discovering signal faults can be very timeconsuming, but the R&S®RTM oscilloscopes simplify the search process. The mask test finds rare signal faults while the FFT provides a look at the spectrum of a signal. Settings in only seconds: mask test Mask tests quickly reveal whether a specific signal lies within defined tolerance limits and use statistical pass/fail evaluation to assess the quality and stability of a device under test. Signal anomalies and expected results are easy to identify by stopping the measurement if the mask is violated. The mask test...

To the point: comprehensive triggering capabilities The FFT function has a dedicated button and enables users to detect and analyze faults within a signal's spectrum. With the FFT activated, the R&S®RTM oscilloscopes simultaneously provide a spectral display of the signal and a small time domain window for checking the sampling i nterval. The Autoset button is extremely convenient: The instrument automatically selects the amplitude and frequency scaling that optimally matches the measured signal. Without valid triggering, it is impossible to obtain a stable signal display on the screen or...

Usability: smart concepts The R&S®RTM oscilloscopes are easy and intuitive to use. They make user wishes come true: Just unpack the instrument, switch it on and start measuring. Easy orientation: color-coded controls The controls for vertical settings and the trigger are colorcoded. Multicolor LEDs around the rotary knobs visualize the channel that is currently in focus. This color coding corresponds to the signal display on the screen, and this clarity allows smooth work, even during complex tests and measurements. Fast access: flat menus The logically grouped menus with flat structures...

Fault-tolerant: undo/redo function Remote control, data exchange: diverse interfaces Restoring previous settings is no problem with the undo/ redo function. Corrections are easy to make if the wrong key is pressed. The high-resolution 8.4" color XGA TFT display is one of the R&S®RTM oscilloscopes' highlights. This brilliant, sharp display clearly shows the measurement signals, right down to the smallest details. Three USB interfaces are available on the R&S®RTM oscilloscopes: two USB host ports – which can be used, for instance, to easily transfer screenshots or instrument settings to a USB...

Frontends: low noise and low crosstalk The accuracy of a signal displayed on the screen heavily depends on the oscilloscope's inherent noise. For this reason, the R&S®RTM oscilloscopes have low-noise frontends and A/D converters. As a result, they are able to measure precisely, even at the smallest vertical resolutions. Rohde & Schwarz has many years of experience developing precision test and measurement equipment, which also benefits the R&S®RTM oscilloscopes. Tried and trusted Rohde & Schwarz quality is also available in bench oscilloscopes. This precision is retained even when...

Logic analysis: more details Fast and precise testing of embedded designs: 16 additional channels with the R&S®RTM-B1 logic analysis option. Precision measurement: up to 5 Gsample/s sampling rate The R&S®RTM oscilloscopes' sampling rate of up to 5 Gsample/s makes it possible to accurately measure the timing of logic signals. Since the signals can be precisely time-referenced to one another, timing and clock errors can be detected with greater ease, e.g. on serial or parallel bus signals. The R&S®RTM oscilloscopes use the high sampling rate over the entire acquisition time, ensuring high...
